A leisurely stroll around the Taubensee offers tranquility and gentle enjoyment of nature. The small karst water lake has no inflow from above ground but is fed by springs on the lake floor. The lake and its surroundings provide habitats for many different plant and animal species such as the alpine newt. A platform on the north side of the lake offers breathtaking views of the Watzmann and Hochkalter. The lake can easily be accessed via a short walk from the car park on the Alpenstrasse and the walking route is signposted.
